Nitrogen-filled tires?

I've seen the little green caps indicating a tire filled with nitrogen on cars, but I have absolutely no idea what the advantages are. Is this just a gimmick to suck more money out of my wallet?

If it's a good thing, is it good for motorcycles too? Just wondering...

This topic is now being discussed in this current thread:

So I am locking this one down to stop the fragmentation.
